Studying Spanish at our school in San Joaquin, Costa Rica, offers all the advantages of being near the capital, yet none of the disadvantages of the city centre. The Spanish courses take place mainly in the mornings, In the afternoon there are Salsa dancing lessons in the school as well as optional visits and activities. There are no more than 4 students in each Spanish class, meaning much more personal attention for each student.
San Joaquín de Flores is a prosperous, friendly, middle-class town of around 5,000 people, 17km from San José, the capital city of Costa Rica. Here students can easily meet "Ticos" (Costa Ricans), whilst also being just a short bus ride from the capital.

Our School - San Joaquin |
Our school in San Joaquín has magnificent views over coffee and banana plantations, towards the Barva volcano. There are 17 classrooms, a student cafeteria, as well as student room with e-mail access.
This is an excellent base from which to explore the mountain rain forests to the west, as well as the beaches of Guanacaste. Students should consider combining San Joaquín with a stay in Flamingo Beach and/or Monteverde. It is also an ideal base from which to explore the capital city. There are few locations in Latin America where you can study Spanish and also explore so many different places in such a small area. Our school also organises Volunteer Work for students at various locations in Costa Rica.
